No Miracles? Maybe it's no repsect
The Cracked Door has been running a series of posts about why we don't see major miracles in the western church. Today's deals with a lack of respect for God appointed leaders...
...accompanying the freedom of democracy is a relative disregard for authority and a general lack of respect for the positions held by leadership in society. People look at leaders like they look at themselves and find it difficult to hold their “equals” in high esteem.
Therefore, it is widely accepted for citizens to publicly ridicule democratically elected Government officials including Prime Ministers and Presidents. Unfortunately, this same critical attitude has entered the Body of Christ.
Why are we surprised that people don’t see results when these men of God pray for them? We don’t even respect them! We talk about them behind their backs and rip their names to shreds because of jealousy but we expect to see them perform miracles? We’re quick to gossip if the pastor gets a new car or buys a new house.
Definaty worth reading the whole post.
